Nintendo still not overly fussed about Australia, apparently

*cries* My poor Wii is oh so dusty...

Nintendo: promoting piracy and modchipping since whenever.

Well i cant stand it any more either, they have no idea how many people play games in AU.

Or they think that everyone down there is busy chasing kangaroos all day and don't have time to buy all those fancy 360's and Wii's that the whole world is in to.

Someone support meee!

@Ben: like the miscreant descendants of criminals wouldn't have pirated it anyway.

Nintendo = teh smart.

"like the miscreant descendants of criminals wouldn't have pirated it anyway."

Do people just forget that between 1618 and 1775 America was used as a British penal colony?

Oh yeah, your schools are so underfunded that most of you are lucky if you know how to tie your own shoes.

You wonder why mod chipping is rampant and legal in AU
haha, what else is one to do!

It absolutely wrecks my head the way games are delays in Europe and Australia, what difference does it make to just change the encryption on the disc and start pressing it again, Halo 3 was done with ease within a couple of days of each release around the world, why the hell not Wii games.

It's a kick in the face having to avoid spoilers and other details on games for months before you can get your hands on it and play the thing.

AGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

@avove me: that's exactly the reason why im so pissed. i wish da old times back when i had no internet and just heard from a new game when i saw a tv ad or even when i saw it in the store. all this waiting drives me crazy from time to time...

on the other hand: i think the n64 had its european release about 6 month after the american release. so times have changed for good in some way. have ...to be...patient...

Eh, this sucks as I was picking up BWii and Z&W, but its probably for the best - my wallet can rest easy.

This is the main reason I got my modchip, to play imports. Too bad most import games don't work though =(

It wasn't just a penal colony: you are like making stuff up. It stopped being a penal colony the year before we gained our independence? Weird. Sounds like your schools are overfunded to the point where they are teaching made up stuff. But nice try. Americans were killing all the indigenous people with a sustainable mode of life at the time, sure, and there were some penal colonies, but at Australia was penal colonies and killing indigeonous people. Room to talk, buddy. At least I have all the latest video games ha ha

Can we please stop making rude, inaccurate statements about the educational systems of the others' respective countries? Its pointless...

Nintendo screwing over PAL regions? STOP THE PRESSES!!

It is NOT pointless! For example, our history is much easier to learn. Let's see, the British landed, colonised the east coast, explored a bit, had a huge gold rush, kidnapped several Aboriginal children, a couple of wars and a depression, TV, another war and colour TV, high interest rates, me, then everything kind of just melds with the rest of the world.

"It wasn't just a penal colony: you are like making stuff up."

Am I like making stuff am I? Like whatever. OMG!!!11one!

I can't even begin to imagine what the most of that comment says, your grammar hurts my head.
